Clicker Unveils Mobile Apps for iPhone and Android

This week Clicker unveiled its iPhone and Android apps to help you manage your playlists on the go and even find new programs to watch from your mobile phone.

When we reviewed Clicker last November, we saw a Web service designed to help you either compliment or replace your existing television addiction with videos from around the Web. The service excels at aggregating video from other services and wrapping them up in an easy to browse and manage site with tools to help you stay on top of your favorite shows and share them with your friends.

Since then, the service has been busy adding more shows, more Web video sources, and more features to the site, and this week Clicker unveiled its iPhone and Android apps to help you manage your playlists on the go and even find new programs to watch from your mobile phone.

Clicker's new mobile apps allow you to log in and manage your Clicker account from your mobile phone and browse the Clicker database for video, movies, and TV shows you may be interested in watching. Clicker's database of video is still strong, featuring popular TV shows and programs from networks like PBS, Showtime, CBS, and HBO. You can also use the mobile apps to manage your Clicker playlist, adding and removing programs that you find from your phone without having to wait until you get to a computer.

The Clicker mobile apps also allow you to browse and view mobile-friendly video right there on your device, if it's supported. You can also keep up with what your friends in the Clicker network are watching, reviewing, and commenting on. The developers behind the Clicker apps claim that you'll be able to comment and discuss those shows in future versions of the apps, and share your comments with friends both at Clicker and on Facebook and Twitter.

You can also use the Clicker app to check-in to your favorite TV shows, making use of Clicker's FourSquare-like feature that's allows you to earn awards for watching your favorite shows, much like GetGlue and Miio. Both the iPhone and Android apps are free and available now in their respective App stores. Back to top
